How to pass examinations and interviews.
I would like to share some secrets about something that most of us fear : examinations and interview.
The trick to getting through tests, exams and interview is sufficient preparation and confidence.
We always imagine the worst when it comes to exams or tests. This is how we frighten ourselves and plant fear into our own minds, and thus our body reacts accordingly by sweating. Anxiety sets in, and lo and behold, the result is that we fail because we have already imagined failure!
So to avoid such a negative journey and tendency, it is first vital to allow ourselves to seek a calm mind, a cool head and a proper plan.
The question is: How do we become confident and behave confidently?
Think of a time when you felt focused and very confident. It might not be an exam or a test period. Feel how good you felt at that time, and then imagine yourself going through the test or exam with that same kind of feeling.
Then run through the process over and over again by practicing and rehearsing. So in preparing for an exam, do those questions which you are most confident of passing, then work on those that you may have difficulties with. And hence in this way, you already have the good feeling inside your head and thus you will do well.
I practiced this NLP way of preparing for exams and interviews and have done extremely well in both areas. I believe you can also do the same. Just be confident, feel confident and use this way of imagining a good outcome and thus be sure that you will be able to overcome the fear of anything – be it exams or interviews!
